Jeans: c/o Paige Denim // Shirt: F21 // Vest: Dana Buchman for Kohl’s {similar} // Jacket: Borrowed from Mom // Shoulder Bag: c/o OASAP // Shoes: Target via thrifted {brand new with tags!} // Nails: Butter London ‘Come to Bed Red’

Firstly, I hope y’all had a lovely Thanksgiving mini vaca! Who’s getting on that work-out plan with me?!
I, personally been recovering from my Black Friday escapade beginning at about 8:30PM Thanksgiving night – 8AM Friday morning…oh yes. The mother and I went to town pulling an all nighter, literally everywhere.
We really felt the definition of ‘shop ’til you drop’. By the end of the ‘night’ I could barley decide what looked nice and what didn’t! But moving on…

Today I wanted to do a little take on what some may consider to be a fashion faux pas: mixing Black + Brown.
It’s a color combo I may not have even enjoyed years ago, however I’ve found that if you pair the right shades of brown with black it actually works out quite nicely. And I know all of y’all have brown and black in your closet, so get to matching!

On a side note…I’ll be heading to LA {followed by San Fran} on THURSDAY for about 3 weeks! Let me know if you have any suggestions on places to go, shop, eat, brunch, etc. OR hey, if you’re in the area and would like to meet up!

    i usually find i thard to pull off wearing brown and black together but you do it with such ease and looks so good! Love it!

      I used to feel the same way, but I’ve found as long as the shade of brown is distinct enough on its own, black + brown can pair nicely. Give it a try! 🙂

    Black and brown used to be a color combo I thought was a huge no-no…until I learned how to wear it! You look so chic!
